Independent Hardcore Wrestling returns March 24, 2012 with our first show of the year as we had back to Red Bud, Illinois @ the V Bar & Grill!

Last time we were in Red Bud, Billy McNeil shocked fans by winning the IHW championship from Cameron Cage in a classic main event! His victory, and the joy of his fans, would be short lived, when he was attacked by long-time friend, Mephisto. In one of the most vile acts in the history of IHW, Mephisto would cut up the face of his former friend and wiped the blood on his face. McNeil's title victory seems to have made Mephisto snap. Could it be jealousy that made Mephisto turn on Billy? On February 4, Mephisto addresses IHW fans on "why" he did what he did.

In other action, we will feature our 4th Annual IHW Invitational Tournament! For those of you who are unfamiliar with the rules of this tournament, four singles matches will take place. The winners of these four matches will meet later in the evening in a four corners elimination match. The winner of this match will recieve the IHW Invitational trophy. Winning this trophy grants the holder a match for the IHW championship anytime they want for one year. Past winners of the tournament have gone on to win the IHW championship, most notably Brandon Aarons and Billy McNeil!

The first match to be announced for the tournament will feature the returning Brandon Aarons against old rival, Eric Allen!

We will have more matches announced in the weeks following this story, so come back and remember to mark Saturday, March 24, 2012 on your calenders! It will be a night you won't want to miss!
